Involve a child in creativity, make a gift for dad, grandfather with your own hands. Any father will be pleased with a touching craft or a children's card from his son or daughter.

TO

drinking a gift in the store on February 23 is not a big problem. In each store before the holidays, the corresponding goods are laid out. It seems to us that a handmade gift will be much more pleasant and memorable than just a purchase. And your men, whether it be dad, husband, brother, will definitely like your and your child's efforts.

It's a good idea to make a photo frame for dad as a gift on February 23rd. Only one child can not cope with this work. If you take part in creativity, he will succeed.

For work you will need:

1. Colored cardboard.
2. Thicker cardboard (you can take any color).
3. Colored paper for application or colored cardboard.
4. Scissors.
5. PVA glue.
6. Ruler.

Take green cardboard, stepping back from the edge 4-5 cm with a ruler and draw a frame for the photo with a pencil. First, we figure out which photo will fit here, all our calculations depend on it. Drawn and attached photo. If everything works out, carefully cut out the frame.

We cut out the details for the design of the frame, drawing them by hand or printing them out on a printer.

Glue color application to the frame and start making the frame itself. We cut out a rectangle from thick cardboard, equal in area to the frame, we get the back of the product. We glue the two parts of the cardboard and glue the leg for stability. The gift is ready.

You can decorate the frame by gluing a shell, a beaded fish, an anchor, a steering wheel - on the theme of the sea.

If you don't know what to give young man on February 23, yes a good option, here is a tank:

Assembled from corrugated paper, double-sided tape or glue.

It turns out such an interesting gift:

Another tank, but with a different "content".

The same materials are used, only there is more sweetness.

Received an original gift:

crafts from salt dough made with the child on February 23, you can give at home and at work, at school and in kindergarten. These gifts do not require large expenses, but they will delight you with care and attention.

Salt dough is easy to make. From the dough you can make a figurine, a key chain, a fridge magnet.

One of the many recipes for salt dough:

1. Flour - 300 grams.
2. Salt ordinary, large - 300 grams.
3. Water - 200 grams.
4. Vegetable oil - 1 tbsp. a spoon.

Knead the dough by adding water gradually. When it is ready, roll it out on the table and squeeze out the details with molds. Even small children can cope with such simple work. We dry the blanks in the oven. You can paint with either food grade paints or acrylic paints. It is up to you whether you give for food or for beauty.

Our next craft for February 23 is a salt dough keychain. We make for dads, grandfathers, brothers and mothers (after all, there are mothers in the military).

We collect every little thing: coins, nuts, buttons, screws, cloves - all this will come in handy for us to work with the dough.

Cut out letters from cardboard: "P", "M" or the initial letter of the name, for example, Sasha. We make a hole in the corner with a hole punch or scissors.

We spread the “sausage” from the dough on cardboard, evenly distributing it over the surface of the letter.

We make a through hole for the ring with an awl or scissors.

We paint the keychain in any color, best of all with acrylic paints. If the paint is not waterproof, cover the top of the keychain with varnish (you can use nail polish).

Leave to dry or dry in the oven. When it dries, we pass the ring through the hole and you can give it.

We got an original steampunk keychain. What is "steampunk"? Science fiction and mechanics, very interesting style.

First, let's come up with the design of our paper postcard. It will be simple to perform or complex - you decide. The main thing is that she beautiful congratulations from 23 February.

Volumetric postcards in kindergarten and at school:

Let's start with the original postcard, on which we will write congratulations and wishes. Let's make postcards different techniques. You can make such a postcard using the origami technique. For a postcard, you will need a rectangular sheet of colored paper. Take for a sample plain paper A4 format, fold according to the instructions, you will understand which sheet size is more suitable.

Fold the rectangle in half along the sheet. The paper folds like a book, there is nothing difficult to work with.

We unfold the sheet and fold it again, from the sides to the center.

We got a rectangle: on one side there is a sheet, and on the other - a vest.

The photo shows that you need to bend inward, this is a mistake. Bend the corners outward so that the corners protrude slightly beyond the fold. We made “sleeves”, turn the work over and bend it 2 cm in the opposite direction.

This is how the “collar” turns out, we will send a square of the shirt to the corners of the collar.

A tie or bow tie can be cut out and glued onto the “shirt”, or you can make a tie, as in the video.

Do not forget to write congratulations and wishes inside the sheet. We hope that your man will be satisfied. And if you add a small gift (for his hobby), it will be just wonderful.

Like this interesting postcard can be done with your child. A very interesting technique that requires only perseverance and patience.

For work you will need:

1. A set of paper ribbons (you can cut it yourself).
2. Cardboard.
3. PVA glue.
4. Tweezers.
5. Scissors.

Special tool for twisting ribbons (you can do it yourself).
How to make a twisting tool: stick a needle with a large eye into a wooden stick (pencil, stick from an art brush) and bite the eye in half.

The scheme of work on the postcard:

Cut out the base from cardboard, cut thin strips, winding them around the tool, fix the edges, and then glue onto the base.

Even for postcards, any CDs are suitable. For this postcard, we cut out a star from red cardboard, paste a CD-ROM over the star and inscriptions and clippings from magazines or drawings.

February 23 is, first of all, the holiday of dads and grandfathers. We prepare gifts and congratulations for them, make postcards and in every possible way show how much we love our dear men.

On the holiday of February 23, men traditionally receive gifts from their loved ones. With special trepidation, dads and grandfathers perceive the touching presents that their kids make in the classroom in kindergarten. The task of the educator is to come up with and implement an original idea that will inspire the children to be creative.

sailboat

As the theme of "male" crafts, educators often choose military equipment and transport: kids are happy to draw and make guns, planes, tanks, cars, ships, etc. The teacher can offer the children to make a voluminous sailboat based on such an unusual material as a foam sponge for washing dishes.

Crafts can be done with children of both younger and older groups, only in the first case, the teacher offers ready-made details, and in the second, preschoolers do everything themselves.

For work you will need the following materials:

• sponges for washing dishes in bright colors;
• thin wooden sticks, such as bamboo skewers;
• small plastic skewers (for canapes) of bright colors;
• scissors;
• colored paper;
• square or rectangular stencils in three sizes for cutting sails (the size of the largest approximately corresponds to the plane of the sponge), a stencil for a small flag;
• PVA glue;
• glue brushes.

The children will be interested in working with unusual material in the manufacture of a sailboat

The craft is done as follows:

1. The corners of the sponge are cut off on one side - it turns out the bow of the ship. Along the length of the resulting base, you need to make holes with a skewer.

   At one end, the sponge becomes sharper and becomes like the bow of a boat.

2. The next stage is the manufacture of sails. Children draw them using three sizes of stencils and then cut them out. The sails should be put on a skewer, fixing the flag on top with glue.

   Sails are arranged in descending order - from bottom to top

3. Then the sails are connected to the sponge base.

   A skewer with sails is inserted into the hole farthest from the bow of the boat.

4. The final stage is the decoration of the sailboat. A small plastic skewer is inserted into the hole on the bow of the boat.

   The bow of the sailboat needs to be decorated so that the craft looks elegant

Instead of paper for sails, you can use cloth napkins for cleaning - it looks very nice. In addition, the sponge (basis for a sailboat) can be profiled (wide and slotted).

Sails can be cut out of fabric napkins for cleaning, and for the base, take a profiled sponge with slots

As a basis for crafts, you can take disposable plate and perform a volumetric application on it Waste material, For example, plastic cups perfect for boat making Pieces of fabric can also be used to create voluminous applications. Walnut shells can be used as the basis for a mini sailboat If there is no sponge or other base at hand, the deck of a sailboat can be made from plain paper or cardboard. You can decorate ready-made crafts with multi-colored flags on threads For younger preschoolers, the option of making such an application from paper and plasticine is suitable.

Original mug for dad

All men like to drink tea and coffee. Therefore, a homemade mug may well become a small holiday present. The main thing is to decorate it with patriotic attributes. Such a simple craft can be done with pupils of the younger or middle group(the teacher himself makes all the preparations).

Materials for work:

• thick cardboard of yellow, orange, blue (you can also take a light green shade - the main thing is that the colors of the Russian flag stand out on the basis);
• stripes of white, blue and red (their length should correspond to the width of the resulting mug - about 10 cm, and the width is 2 cm);
• tea tag with a thread;
• glue stick.

Algorithm for making a gift mug:

1. The teacher cuts out the workpiece, and one part of the product should be slightly smaller than the other.

   The preparation of the mug is done in advance by the educator

2. The base is folded in half according to the accordion method. This will create a slight volume effect. A fold is formed on the edge of the upper part (all these manipulations are also done by the teacher in advance).

   Folding the mug using the accordion method will create a slight effect of volume.

3. The child sticks to reverse side the top of the base, a thread with a label (fixed with a small piece of paper).

   The child smears a piece of paper with glue and fixes the thread of the tea bag with it.

4. To the bottom of the mug, the kids stick strips - it turns out the flag of Russia (the teacher tells you in what order to arrange the colors).

   Preschoolers glue the strips in the desired sequence, which the teacher will tell them

5. The final step is to fix the edge of the top of the mug on the bottom. Children smear it with glue and press it.

   Ready-made craft mugs look bright and festive

A mug can be made not in the form of a postcard, but voluminous, then it can be put on a table or shelf.

Dad can put a voluminous mug on a shelf at home

Postcard "Order for the Pope"

Postcards with three-dimensional elements always look interesting. This effect can be achieved using, for example, the technique of plasticineography. The following craft is suitable for older preschoolers.

To create a postcard you will need:

• plasticine;
• stack
• cardboard (rectangular A5 blanks).

The creative process includes a number of stages:

1. A thin layer of plasticine should be applied to the cardboard base. Such a coating should be very even.

   The plasticine layer should be as even as possible.

2. It is necessary to roll up thin flagella from yellow plasticine - this will be a salute train. A ball rolls from a red piece, then it is squeezed into a cake. With a stack, cut the cake in five places, grab each resulting segment with your fingers and pull it into the corner - you get a star with rays.

   An asterisk is obtained from a plasticine cake after pulling it from five sides

3. The star is attached to the center of the postcard. It is framed by a thin flagellum made of red plasticine. At the top, short yellow flagella are a salute train, and above them are small red stars. Additionally, the composition is decorated with small yellow balls.

   Small decorative elements give the order showiness

4. Stripes are drawn in a stack along each ray of the star.

   Stripes on the star make it more expressive

5. A thin flagellum is formed from green plasticine - the basis of a laurel branch. Yellow petals and balls are attached to it. To the right of the branch, in the corner of the postcard, you need to collect the number "23" from yellow flagella.

   At the bottom, the order is complemented by a laurel branch and the number "23"

Photo gallery: ideas for creating voluminous postcards

The volume of the composition is given by clouds of cotton wool and flowers from crumpled napkins. The ship is made according to the simplest scheme, but together with paper waves and seagulls, everything looks very impressive. The flag is glued only on both sides in the form of a wave - it seems to flutter beautifully in the wind The flag of Russia can be glued together from different strips of paper, which will add volume to the postcard. The number "3" is originally made using the quilling technique The sail seems to flutter in the wind In the classroom at the preschool educational institution, children can perform a collective gift composition for men Postcards with three-dimensional elements inside look unusual Such a postcard can even be made younger preschoolers if the teacher prepares the necessary elements in advance This postcard combines elements of origami and three-dimensional appliqué Old CDs are great for making holiday cards.

Shirt with tie

Real male attribute- a shirt with a tie. It can also be played as baby gift. You can use the origami technique (an option for older preschoolers).

For work you will need:

• blue cardboard A4;
• colored paper (2 contrasting colors, for example, blue and yellow - respectively, A5 format and a square of 7 by 7 cm);
• PVA glue.

Progress:

1. A sheet of blue paper should be folded in half along the long side, then unfolded and each edge folded to the middle. After that, sleeves are formed: for this, the edges are bent at the top of the workpiece.

   The sleeves of the future shirt are obtained from the corners

2. On the opposite side, the edge should be bent by 5 mm.

   The opposite edge must be unscrewed and ironed with your finger

3. On the other side, each folded edge is bent, forming corners with a point towards the middle. It turns out the collar of the shirt.

   From the corners you get a neat shirt collar

4. Now it remains to bend the workpiece in half - the shirt is ready. Elements should be fixed in several places with glue.

   The edges of the collar must be placed on top of the bent workpiece - the shirt is ready

5. The upper corner is bent by 1 cm, and then its small corner rises.

   An acute corner is wrapped by 1 cm, and then another small corner is bent

6. On the other hand, the top of the tie is slightly bent and fixed with glue. The side parts are also bent towards the center and glued.

   It turns out a patriotic gift with a beautiful blue ribbon The tie is made in the origami technique, and the shirt collar is simply folded back Shirt crafts can be decorated with buttons, this will give the products a finished look. Shoulder straps with stars will give the shirt a military look.

   When I worked as an educator, the children and I preparatory group also performed crafts by February 23 "Tie". It was very similar to the composition with rhinestones in the photo gallery, only the preschoolers cut out the tie themselves from colored paper (previously folded in half - a symmetrical detail was obtained). And it is very important to use cardboard here, which on each side has different colour- then the "shirt" looks impressive. The children were delighted with the result, especially the girls - one had to see with what love they did the work for their father, how they looked forward to how gladly he would accept their gift.

   All crafts dedicated to February 23, first of all, have a male and patriotic focus. Preschoolers enthusiastically make such gifts, putting a piece of their soul into them and anticipating the joy they will bring to a loved one.

• Ordinary toothpick.
• Squares of bright crepe paper (four sizes).
• Tricolor ribbon.
• Marker.

Having cut off two front right corners of the sponge, the child receives a body blank.

A wooden mast-skewer is inserted into the workpiece.

If the child is good with scissors, you can offer him to cut strips of crepe paper in half to make sail blanks. You can use rectangles by rolling them into rolls.

The bottom will be the largest sail. It is followed by a smaller square. The smallest square is placed at the top.

The mast is crowned with a flag cut from a tricolor ribbon. A toothpick is stuck in front of the mast, on which the child puts a sail with the inscription "dad". The inscription is made with a felt-tip pen. It can be done by both teachers and the children themselves (according to a previously made model).

Tie for my beloved dad

Necessary materials:

• Tie blank made of golden cardboard.
• Black and orange paper strips.
• Five-pointed star cut out of orange paper.
• PVA glue, glue brush.
• Oilcloth and napkin (for blotting glue).

Execution sequence:

On the lowest corner of the blank, the children begin to stick an imitation of the St. George ribbon, alternating black and orange stripes. The black stripe should be glued on first.

Children bend the excess length of the strips onto the inside of the workpiece, promptly removing excess glue with a soft cloth.

Above St. George ribbon glued five-pointed star.

Tank for the defender of the Fatherland

Necessary materials:

• 6 matchboxes.
• A sheet of green paper.
• Glue stick.
• Thick black tape.
• A roll of tape.
• Pencil.
• A strip of black cardboard.

Execution sequence:

Using adhesive tape, the child must fasten 4 matchboxes: two at the top and two at the bottom (this will be the body of the tank). He fastens the two remaining boxes (for the tower) separately.

The child pastes the resulting blanks with strips of green paper.

Pasting the edges of the blank intended for the hull with black tape, we get the image of caterpillars. Next, you need to fasten the blanks of the hull and tower together.

Now the hardest part of the task: wrap a pencil with a strip of paper and glue the tube for the gun. Having cut one end of the tube and bending the ends, the child glues the muzzle of the gun to the tank.

It remains to cut out the five-pointed red star, round wheels for the tracks and glue it all to the craft.

Racing car for dad

Necessary materials:

• Bushing from a roll of toilet paper.
• Gouache.
• Colored cardboard.
• Scraps of bright self-adhesive film.
• Glue.

Execution sequence:

Having chosen gouache of their favorite color, the child paints the sleeve left from the toilet paper roll.

Using a template, cut out 4 wheels from colored cardboard.

Decorate them with hats in contrasting colors.

Using the same template, the child makes a steering wheel: it is enough to circle the edges of a circle cut out of white cardboard with a black felt-tip pen (the child can reproduce the design of the steering wheel of his father's car from memory).

At this stage, the child will definitely need the help of an adult: help him cut a hole for the driver in the top of the paper cylinder. For this operation, it is best to use a sharp stationery knife. The resulting valve should be bent: you get the back of the driver's seat.

It remains to decorate the hood of the car with bright self-adhesive film stickers, attach the wheels and steering wheel, assign an individual number to the car and put a Lego toy figure into it.

Airplane for dad

Necessary materials:

• Matchbox.
• Blue cardboard.
• Yellow and red velvet paper.
• PVA glue.
• Simple pencil.
• Scissors.

Execution sequence:

At the first stage, the students mark out the cardboard: from the edge of the sheet they need to cut off one narrow strip (about 2 cm wide), the length of which is equal to the length of this sheet. For the wings, you will need two strips of cardboard, the width of which should match the width of the matchbox. Two more narrow and short strips are cut out for the tail unit.

Having bent the longest strip, the schoolchildren glue it perpendicularly to the matchbox, which acts as the body of the future aircraft.

Having rounded the corners of the blanks prepared for the wings, the children attach them to the body of the airplane.

The tail unit is made as follows: one short narrow strip with rounded corners is glued inside a strip bent in half, acting as a tail. Another short strip must be folded in half, bent 0.5 cm on each side and glue the resulting part to the back of the tail.

From yellow velvet paper you need to cut a propeller (you can give them ready template), and from the red - four five-pointed stars (two large and two small). Or flowers, if the girl gives.

The propeller is attached to the middle of the box.

Large stars are placed on the wings of the aircraft, and small stars on the tail.

• Picture on a military theme.
• Colored paper.
• Stickers with military symbols.
• Glue stick.
• Markers or colored pencils.
• Stationery knife.
• A simple pencil, ruler, scissors.

Execution sequence:

Starting to make a postcard, we bend a sheet of cardboard in half.

Using a ruler, we divide the height of the postcard into three equal parts, making marks on the fold line with a pencil.

From the marks made, we draw two perpendiculars 3 cm long and cut the fold of the postcard with scissors.

Having straightened the cut sheet of cardboard, we put a ruler on each pair of points (at the beginning and at the end of the cut) and with the help of an awl we draw a slightly noticeable in-depth line, which will help us gently bend the cardboard to obtain an internal “step”.

In the very center of the postcard, we should get a square.

The resulting square needs to be pressed inside the postcard and the folds should be made clearer.

The outer side of the postcard will be decorated with an application using military symbols, and to decorate its inner part, you need a suitable colorful picture.

You can, using the services of the Internet, download "military" coloring pages for kids, cut out the images and, sticking them on cardboard, color them with felt-tip pens, wax crayons or colored pencils with your own hands.

We paste the finished picture on the “step” so that the image looks voluminous. An application made of colored paper will make the card even more interesting and expressive.

How to make a shirt for dad

Taking a rectangular sheet of paper, in its upper part you need to bend a narrow strip. Then, straightening the sheet, fold it in half and make a small cut from one edge right along the top fold line.

Let's straighten the paper and attach the upper right corner to the intersection point of the center line and the fold line. Do the same with the left corner of the sheet. We will get the silhouette of a folded shirt with a collar.

If desired, using the origami technique, you can also make a tie.

Using a felt-tip pen, draw pockets and buttons on the edges of the collar.

You can make a postcard, limiting yourself to gluing the finished shirt onto a sheet of cardboard and accompanying it with a congratulatory inscription, or you can turn it into a portrait of your beloved dad by painting on her face and hands.
